Prostrate form of this common shrub. It occasionally throws up a tall growth, which should be cut out at its base.

Any more advice, please, Andrew, for keeping potentillas healthy and strong ?

TT - potentillas are bomb-proof plants that look after themselves really. If they are getting very straggly, you can cut them right back to a six-inch stump, and they'll grow again.
